PAD patient with very little circulation to toes.
For 2 months : experiencing numbness + pain in right big toe.
In last 2 days, experiencing some numbness in left toe.

Drs. Have suggested, over the years, that I consider leg artery bypass surgery.
What experience has anyone had with this surgery?

I’m a 76 year old female stroke survivor with family history of artery disease.

Hi @maryconnect - I wanted to let you know I moved your post here so that you could connect with more members talking about peripheral artery disease:

Hoping that here you can connect with @JustinMcClanahan @dsthing @mostiles12 @foam4u and others who can speak to whether they've had toe numbness and also pain, and if they have had or are knowledgeable about leg artery bypass surgery, as doctors have suggested for you over the years.
